I thought it was Mass Drivers? And before that Flaylocks... And Grenades... Or was it Swarm Launchers? Wait... Maybe it was Forge Guns?

Every gun is easy if you're good with it and know what situations it's best for.

And so much easier. love the HMG in tight quarters but with the big slow suit its silly to try to use in any pub matches.

but its cool I enjoy the easy mode the AR rifle offers now.

im enjoying the fact I can play with new equipment since I couldn't do much with the heavy suit. and owning the poor heavies still using the hmg make me laugh

AR's have super accurate ADS fire and the recoil is basically negligible. Then again, it is an advanced space rifle.....you'd think they would figure out how to deal with recoil on such a mainstream weapon.

Yeah but it also shoots searing hot balls of condensed energy from a barrel at escape velocity, no recoil reduction system gonna stop that having a kick!!

Also the shotgun with the same tech needs an armature to stop you ripping your arm off everytime you fire it!!

believe me, i keep up on Dust lore

Sorry but if you use ARs, and lose a 1v1 to ANY suit within 100m, then you suck, kill yourself.

AR Scout vs. Shotgun Heavy.

Fight starts at 2m range.

Post video to prove you win these encounters routinely.

I did the same a while ago, was running HMG heavy and often felt that that the SMG was more practical. Went 1v1 with another heavy, had my SMG out, he had his HMG, very close quarters, and he went down before my shields did. Between that and not being able to hit things across a small road, I just swapped to the AR. The HMG can be fun, looks sweet, but the AR just has to much versatility and can be used reliably in most every encounter. Shotgun scout at close range, spaz, spray, and pray. Heavy in the area, either get behind him or shoot him from across the street. Sniper at 75-100m, ads, strafe, and burst fire. Decent situational awareness and understanding of others' weaknesses will put you on at least a 50/50 footing vs most any other weapons.

Its got to a point that my SMG feels more effective than my HMG....

It's buff time

You're forgetting the Tac AR, which was OP cause the clip, damage, and ROF combined. I might have to try it out again cause that dps + aim assist might make it OP again even with reduced clip size.

Anyone still enjoying the HMG?


AR is so much better in all situations! and you can use equipment slots for that added fun

AR's have always been easy mode in comparison to every other weapon in the game.

I'm sorry, but any heavy worth his clone goo isn't going to fight a guy with an AR out in the open. The smart ones play the waiting game and wait for the red dots to come them, and then they turn them into bloody perforated pieces of clone meat.
